In the manner of a lame man who has beautiful legs to no purpose, so also is a parable unfit for the mouth of the foolish.
8 Neginagi antahi'zane vahe'ma ra zamagima zmizamo'a, kumi'atifima have erinteno ahe atrenaku anteankna nehie.
Just like one who casts a stone into the pile of Mercury, so also is he who gives honor to the foolish.
9 Neginagi antahi'zane vahe'mo'zama knare nomanizamofo naneke hanazana, negi ti neno neginagi hu'nea vahe'mo, ave'ave nofi azampi azerineno traka truku huno vano hiankna nehie.
In the manner of a thorn, if it were to spring up from the hand of a drunkard, so also is a parable in the mouth of the foolish.

11 Kramo'ma amu'ma atitrenere'ma eteno viaza hu'za neginagi vahe'mo'za koma nehaza neginagi zamavu'zmavara hutere nehaze.
Like a dog that returns to his vomit, so also is the imprudent who repeats his foolishness.
12 Neginagi vahe'mo'za amuhama hazazamo'a, ama' antahi'zane vahe'ma mani'none hu'za antahiza vahera zamagateneraze.
Have you seen a man who seems wise to himself? There will be greater hope held for the unwise than for him.

Just as he is guilty who let loose the arrows and the lances unto death,
so also is the man who harms his friend by deceitfulness. And when he has been apprehended, he says, “I did it jokingly.”
20 Hagege teve rampama omanesigeno'a, tevea rukru huno ontegahie. Hagi vahe zamefi kema hu'zama omanesigeno'a, ha' frama hu'zana omanegosie.
When the wood fails, the fire will be extinguished. And when the gossiper is taken away, conflicts will be quelled.
21 Tevemo'a tanknuzare tevea nereno hagage teve rampare rukru huno tevea nereankna hu'za keframa vazi vahe'mo'za, ha'ma hu'zana eri agafa nehaze.

In the same manner as an earthen vessel, if it were adorned with impure silver, conceited lips are allied with a wicked heart.
24 Mago'mo'ma avesra hunentesia vahe'mofoma amega agiteti avurera so'e ke humigahianagi, agu'afina antahi muginente.
An enemy is known by his lips, though it is from his heart that he draws out deceit.
25 Knare kema hanigenka ana kegura tamage hunka antahiomio, na'ankure agu'afina 7ni'a kasrino agote'zamo avite'ne.

Whoever digs a pit will fall into it. And whoever rolls a stone, it will roll back to him.
28 Havi kema hu vahe'mo'a, avesrama hunentea vahera, havige huno azeri havizahu ke hunente. Rumofo zante ke'neno masave kema hu'zamo'a, ruga'a vahera azeri haviza nehie.
A false tongue does not love truth. And a slippery mouth works ruin.
